Tear Me Down
By jajang829
Here I am building up
Walls around my
beating heart
Not for my own protection
Only hoping to have them gone
I struggle with the irony
All of my walls support you
Holding you up
Keeping
me down
How can I watch you
Living throughout
me
When all I'm wanting
Is for you to care enough
To tear down my walls
So I can lift
you up
Who might you become
My soul your justification
Screaming from my parapet
Appealing you to tear me down
So egocentric your goal
Heedless the truth of reality
Indulgent only in hope
Ignorant, my
opiate consumes
Refusing the pain you bear
I surmount
once again
Casting you aside knowingly
No one is more worthy but me
No, No one is stronger than I

This shows a lot of emotion and leaves me wondering the story behind it. Like it is only a small sum of a huge equation. And I read it over and over looking for an answer.
